This book was released on 2018-11-26 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses art photography as a point of departure for learning about physics, while also using physics as a point of departure for asking fundamental questions about the nature of photography as an art. Although not a how-to manual, the topics center around hands-on applications, most-often illustrated by photographic processes that are inexpensive and easily accessible to students (including a versatile new process developed by the author, and herein first described in print). A central theme is the connection between the physical interaction of light and matter on the one hand, and the artistry of the photographic processes and their results on the other. Geometry and the Nature of Light focuses on the physics of light and the optics of lenses, but also includes extended discussions of topics less commonly covered in a beginning text, including symmetry in art and physics, different physical processes of the scattering of light, photograms (photographic shadow prints) and the nature of shadows, elements of 2-dimensional design, pinhole photography and the view camera. Although written at a beginning undergraduate level, the topics are chosen for their role in a more general discussion of the relation between science and art that is of interest to readers of all backgrounds and levels of expertise.

Book excerpt: Moholy-Nagy "was the dominant theoretician of the Bauhaus during its most prosperous era; his Constructivist/Suprematist paintings are among the finest achievements in European art of the twenties; he was a pioneer in kinetic sculpture; and his photographs, photograms and photoplastics led the way in exploring the full potential of photo reproduction. ... [H]e also made films, designed scenery and costumes, and excelled in commercial graphics and exhibition design. ... [This book] examines in detail the various stages of his career, from Hungary and Kassák's Activist circle during the First World War to Germany and the Bauhaus, from England in the 1930s to America and the founding of the New Bauhaus in Chicago ... [and includes] a wide selection of Moholy-Nagy's writings [and] extracts from his own letters, diaries and reminiscences, [and] critical commentaries of his work."--Back cover.

Book excerpt: Thomas Ruff is acknowledged as a leading innovator in the generation of German artists that propelled photography into mainstream art. For more than two decades, he has pushed the limits of the photographic medium, harnessing technologies both old and new. Traditionally, photograms are made by placing objects onto photosensitive paper and exposing the paper to light, thereby recording the silhouettes of the objects. Captivated by this method but seeking to work beyond its limitations, Ruff collaborated with a 3-D imaging expert to design a virtual darkroom that would enable him to experiment with an infinite range of forms.Negatives are a direct result of Ruff’s photogram process; the white and slate-blue images are inverted versions of early-twentieth-century nude studies.

Download or read book Champs Délicieux written by Man Ray and published by Coach House Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1921, an up-and-coming artist named Man Ray convinced his patron, Ferdinand Howald, to pay his fare from New York to Paris and to support him there for a year. He quickly fell in with the Dadaists, and his art changed. He pioneered a new art form, a cameraless photograph he called the 'Rayograph'. Champs délicieux documents that year in Paris by reproducing the correspondence between Man Ray and Howald and by publishing Howald's personal copy of Ray's album (also Champs délicieux) from that year - the first significant body of Ray's work. By placing these images in the context of the letters, Champs délicieux recreates an important turning point in Ray's career and a definitive moment in art history. This collection, exhibited in the fall of 2000 by co-publisher University of Toronto Art Centre, was edited by Steven Manford, who is currently assembling, with Timothy Baum, a catalogue raisonné of the Rayographs.

Download or read book Impressed by Light written by Roger Taylor and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2007 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photography emerged in 1839 in two forms simultaneously. In France, Louis Daguerre produced photographs on silvered sheets of copper, while in Great Britain, William Henry Fox Talbot put forward a method of capturing an image on ordinary writing paper treated with chemicals. Talbot’s invention, a paper negative from which any number of positive prints could be made, became the progenitor of virtually all photography carried out before the digital age. Talbot named his perfected invention "calotype," a term based on the Greek word for beauty. Calotypes were characterized by a capacity for subtle tonal distinctions, massing of light and shadow, and softness of detail. In the 1840s, amateur photographers in Britain responded with enthusiasm to the challenges posed by the new medium. Their subjects were wide-ranging, including landscapes and nature studies, architecture, and portraits. Glass-negative photography, which appeared in 1851, was based on the same principles as the paper negative but yielded a sharper picture, and quickly gained popularity. Despite the rise of glass negatives in commercial photography, many gentlemen of leisure and learning continued to use paper negatives into the 1850s and 1860s. These amateurs did not seek the widespread distribution and international reputation pursued by their commercial counterparts, nearly all of whom favored glass negatives. As a result, many of these calotype works were produced in a small number of prints for friends and fellow photographers or for a family album. This richly illustrated, landmark publication tells the first full history of the calotype, embedding it in the context of Britain’s changing fortunes, intricate class structure, ever-growing industrialization, and the new spirit under Queen Victoria. Of the 118 early photographs presented here in meticulously printed plates, many have never before been published or exhibited.

Download or read book Barbara Hepworth written by Penelope Curtis and published by Tate. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned for her elegantly sleek sculptures in stone, wood, and bronze, Barbara Hepworth (1903-1975) is among Britain's most important modern artists. This groundbreaking new publication focuses on the spaces and contexts, physical and conceptual, in which the artist is positioned. It examines her interest in staging and presenting work--indoors and out--in studio, film, garden, stage, architecture, photography, and print. As well as placing her work alongside her British and international contemporaries, a broad range of distinguished contributors also consider wider technical and intellectual concerns. Richly illustrated with more than 200 color images drawn from her entire career, the catalog represents some of Hepworth's best-known works in addition to introducing some of her less familiar pieces. The book features previously unseen documentary material, including photographs and film stills that cast new light on one of the 20th century's greatest artists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a remarkable historical survey of photographic images created without a camera. Cameraless Photography presents a concise historical overview of photographic images created independently of a camera. It surveys the corresponding techniques—including photograms, chemigrams, luminograms, dye destruction prints, and more—used to create those images. The book features one hundred key images from more than one hundred and seventy years of history, ranging from the earliest experiments in chemical photography, such as those by Anna Atkins in the nineteenth century, through seminal avant-garde photograms of modernists such as Man Ray in the 1920s and 1930s to the latest digital processes by Susan Derges. Visually compelling, Cameraless Photography is an outstanding introduction to the significant cameraless processes used throughout the history of photography and the cameraless work of some of photography’s greatest names.

Book excerpt: The Art of Light is a superb review of the work of one of the 20th century ́s most influential artists, László Moholy-Nagy ¿ an artist who conceived the various forms of art as a whole. Moholy-Nagy wanted to be a "total artist", simultaneously theoretical and practical, creating in various media and trying to overcome the separation between art and life. His was a radical, experimental art, without sacrificing any artistic practice and wandering from painting, to photography, to films. He also gave great importance to education and believed that man is the only builder of his existence. He was convinced of the importance of art and its ideological and educational functions. Laszlo Moholy-Nagy: The Art of Light presents Moholy-Nagy's work in all of its glorious unity and diversity. Including more than 200 works, from painting, and photograms to collages, films and graphic design, it emphasizes his greatest years of productivity, from 1922 to the end of his life.
